I have some trouble with my hp workstation xw4400 with an ATI FireGL 3300 and the X-Server. There was no problem with the graphical install routine and the graphical boot works fine. But when the system changes into the login-screen, then it results in a black screen and a more or less frozen system.

I have recently installed Fedora 9 about a dozen times and everytime I apply the recommended system updates, the system crashes upon reboot, leaving me at a dead "GRUB" message (not a prompt). I would love to be able to update my version; suggestions?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI tried KDE 4.4. I'm back to using KDE 4.3.5. Very bad experience for me, maybe it's just my system openSuSE 11.1 on AMD x86_64 with 4gb memory. Dolphin was unusable. Deleting a file cause it to crash, go in to a directory with a large number (20,000) of images and it would hang and eventually crash. PIM has removed some of the features I used, main one being ability to add Custom Fields to Contacts and assign categories.
In general, the whole thing was slower, not faster, probably because now it requires Neopmunk to be running and the Akondi server. I'll wait a while and try again and see if it gets stable in first update.
So this is what happen i was updating the system and electricity went out so i cancel the download and close the update manager..when electricity is back i re-select some of the packages for update everything went fine and when installing the updates one error message is generated saying somthing like it is being used my other something and i click cancel and it says restart the system now or later i restart the system and after some time it says--- ubuntu running in low graphics, nvidia kernel fail to load and there is this OK button but nothing work neither the touchpad nor the keyboard i cannot click ok and continue using ubuntu in low graphic mode also.
i tried recovery mode lots od thing happen but it also stuck after this
Begin: running /scripts/init-bottom
Done
and then it get stuck....
one more thing in the update package there are 2 x-server packages...
I have succesfully installed Debian with gnome-core, iceweasel and other useful packages and also followed this guide to autologin and start X. I noticed that the sudo chmod +s /sbin/halt and adding /sbin/halt
in ~/.bashrc made Debian refuse me to log out (from X) and 'log out' turns off the computer insted.Removing /sbin/halt from .bashrc turned everything to as i want it. Should I "repair" or remove something I created with chmod +s command or should I leave it as it is?
Also I would like apt-get(or aptitude) update to run after login (and before startx), so i added sudo apt-get update to .bashrc but it will prompt me with password. Is there someway I could do this without the password(s) which su/sudo needs to execute? This is not so important but it would be very nice to update the system on startup.
Running Karmic on my laptop, I get very occasional kernel panics (suspect it has something to do with the Broadcom WiFi because it only seems to happen with heavy network traffic or HDD access), but just my lucky, this time it Panic'd on me during my recent update -> linux-kernel 2.6.31-20. My system still 'works', but I get the following when doing any other updates, now:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

Now I cannot seem to get rid of that, and of course, I am stuck in the prior version. Granted everything 'works' - but it bothers me. What's the best way to go about tracking down and hashing out a problem like this?
I am on dual boot alongside windows 7 (which works fine). However, when I try to boot into linux I get a few minutes of the ubuntu icon. (sorry for lack of technical terminology). After a few minutes i get terminal sort of screen saying:

/dev/sda5: clean, 165561/625856 files, 984444/2502115 blocks
I have attempted to boot from the live cd I installed from and there is no system response from it. How to either uninstall linux from here or just to get it to boot.

I've had a working desktop even running compiz just before I updated today. Anyway, after the reboot which was required after my update, I got a notification in the boot message which says:

So I installed this system with the net install disk. I really don't want to do that again. It said it needed one update shortly after install and I figured that a net install would pretty much be up to date and I would be fine to wait on that for a day or two. Wrong. I used bit torrent for about 20 hours and downloaded ~60 GB's to the external hard drive. After a while while clicked the little update button closed every thing else then hit apply.
Walk off, come back and the computer is completely non-responsive and the monitor is not getting a feed from the tower. Not even any num-lock blinky light action on the key board. I gave it a minute or two to show any kind of life then turned it off. It came back on well enough to get online and post this but, like the title indicates, that package manager appears to be broken in some way. In Debian based systems there is a command that clears this up. Is there an equivalent for this distro?
I attempted to finish the update but got this error:
Code:
installation of package failed.
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: package NetworkManager-glib-0.8-7.4.i586 is not installed.
Why not just disable that update and see what happens? That's what I said; heres what happens:
Code:
Installation of package failed.
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: db3 error(-30987) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found

The above pertains to a fire fox update of some kind. I still have the install disk handy but would rather not wait the 3 hours it takes to download the packages. How I can fix this. I switched from Ubuntu to SUSE because it is supported by online learning soft ware I have access to.
During update my pc locked up and i shut it down. power button now ubuntu wont start up, it runs straight to busybox, windows starts and runs normaly. i have tried to do some simple fix with a live cd (ubuntu 10.10, the instaled verison is 10.04) but everything stops after a while in the terminal. have tried to install grub + update and upgrad with terminal live cd. have also tried to run the [URL].. but stops when it comes to the partiotn thats ubuntu is on (sda5)disk
have also tried to install 10.10 from the cd, just starts to loading after chosen install.anything i can do in busybox ? must i format the whole disk, including windows ?
I was upgrading my laptop from 10.10 to 11.04. The laptop crashed part way through the upgrade (fairly far in, at least an hour after downloads completed, a few minutes after grub installer asked some questions). The crash was from another issue besides the update
Now when the computer boots it immediately goes into kernal panic (black screen, flashing caps lock light). when selecting recovery mode, it boots for about a 5 seconds then hangs.
I can however at grub select Previous versions of ubuntu > 2.6.35-28 and it will boot succesffully and run without error. Currently running like this to post this message. For the most part everything looks as if it has upgraded. To things worth mentioning.

I backed up my home folder just in case but didn't do a system backup. Wasn't worried if I broke it and had to reinstall, but this doesn't look in my (possibly incorrect) to bad.
I changed the user name using the User Properties window and rename the home directory with the new user name. Did not change the Group Name. The new name is ResearLab
When I restarted the system I received an error message:
Gnote Crash
gnote 0.7.3-4.fc14
Following are the messages:
(1) could not update ICE authority file/home/ResearLab/.ICE authority
There is a problem with the configuration server
(2) /usr/Libexec/gconf-Sanity-check-2 exited with status 256
(3) Nautilus could not create the following required folders: /home/ResearLab/Desktop, /home/ResearLab/.nautilus.
Before running nautilus, please create these folders or set permission such that natilus can create them.
A. What did I do wrong? Is it not possible to rename a user in Linux?
B. How can I correct this problem?
C. Should I have created a new user instead or renaming an existing one?
D. Can the primary group be renamed?
I was running the Update Manager when my system froze due to the failure of Karmic to support motherboards using the Intel 845 chipset.
Although the update did not complete when I rebooted and invoked Update Manager it reported that the system was up to date. How do I reset the system so that I can install the updates?
I upgraded an older system from jaunty 9.04 to karmic 9.10/ Following the upgrade, and about six hours of stable use, I ran the synaptic package manager, to pull in fvwm-crystal and a couple of other nits. Synaptic went into its usual tiring Rebuild Index while the resource hog update-apt-xapian ran away gleefully with the cpu pegged. for longer than I've ever seen it... about 15 minutes, and then the system crashed. and, I mean it crashed hard. I have not seen linux do this in years. Not just a seg fault, the whole machine just crashed (cpu, display, keyboard, the works). Restart and no problem, until I ran Synaptic (Rebuild Index. several minutes, crash).I played this game for a while; thinking the system might just might be overheating... let it cool down, and retried.same result. I tried running one last time, and this time pressed the reload (on Synaptic main panel) prior to the crash.it pulled in the repository updates and completed the Rebuild Index. (no crash)
I have run Synaptic several times since that. downloaded some goodies, and have had no further crashes (although, it does run Rebuild Index every time I start it.and update-apt-xapian pegs the cpu while this is going on. The question(s) I have are:
1) I was not aware that an apt these days can bring down the kernel (no panic, no logging, just down....) How is update-apt-xapian tied into the kernel that permits this vulnerability?
2) There appears (from searches) to be a problem with Synaptic or at least with xapian...?? What is going on with this resource pig..?
3) If I disable xapian and use sudo apt-get instead, instead of Synaptic, does this solve this resource problem?
4) Is there another forum area where this might be addressed besides general?
I have just done a fresh install of 10.10 (full updates) with my new HD 4870, downloaded the last catalyst 11.6 from AMD, I have done the normal procedure of the driver installation, Ubuntu booted correctly, i changed some options in CCC, one of them the "video tearing option" after that X crashed, rebooted the machine, but it stays that way, before the login screen, the X crashes (corrupted image) only reset button restarts the machine.
I removed the installed driver, purged the configurations and started all over using the deb package creation procedure of the driver and also the manual script installation, but it stays the same way, removed again the driver, installed the OSS driver, it logins correctly, tested also with the restricted driver of the Ubuntu repository, it works, but no "video tearing option".
Done a new fresh install of 10.10 (no updates), installed the driver and enabled the "video tearing option", everything is ok, but if I upgrade the kernel the problem returns (if "video tearing option" is enable), i managed to overcome the video tearing option by always enabling VSYNC. After all this, my question is how can I reset CCC settings via command line, the aticonf --initial dont work in this case, CCC is keeping the settings in some config file (I think) that I dont know the location. I want to do some testing, and its annoying to remove, install , reinstall the driver when the X enters this crash loop.
I am trying to determine if I should upgrade PHP's PEAR on my server. I am trying to check the version of PEAR currently installed. I am getting the following error when I use the pear -V command:Warning: realpath(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s)(/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php) in System.php on line 459I tried adding /tmp to my php.ini file, but then when I use the pear -V command it doesn't do anything. I do not get any errors or anything.I am also trying to install symfony and have the same situation described above when I use the following command: pear cannel-discover pear.symfony-project.comDoes anyone have any thoughts? If not the solution, does anyone have any suggestions on how to begin troubleshooting this?

Yesterday, when I logon as root and run service setup, after I uncheck a sevice in the list and then start it, I click the CROSS on the top-right corner of the window, it popup a window (in the background) to ask me to save it or not, but then I total lose the control, no mouse, no keyboard. I try to reset the machine many times, but everytime when I repeat the same operation, it crash again. Seems that if I don't close it, everything would be fine!!!!
